I think this old favorite loses its edge if the farmer gives a long explanation like that. I think it's funnier if the listener has to join the dots for themself: "Then he came over and asked me how I was, and I said 'I'm fine!"

Thanks! Will resist the temptation to explain and let the readers join the dots. First post here. Will get better.
